Airbus A380

by David Riley

Certainly the most ambitious civil aviation project of recent
times, the Airbus A380 is like no other. Just it's sheer size is quite impressive,
and once you look at it closely, as seen in the photos below, you realize
what a technological marvel it really is, and how much design, planning, and
hard work has gone into the project to produce something of this size and
complexity. David had the good fortune of catching this beast at
the 2006 Farnborough Air Show outside of London, and brings to us some views
of the A380 never seen before on the web. Enjoy, and hopefully it will help
make a better, more detailed model.
